Chapter 12: Vampire Vine

With Jiang Yu's cheers, everyone was also full of energy and gathered around. The physical fatigue has not been eliminated, but the burden on my heart has been relieved at once, and I feel extremely relaxed.

Jack briefly introduced the situation of the three-armed King Kong and the current predicament.

Litian, who is still a little weak, sighed after hearing the situation.

Especially when I learned of the accidental death of the three-armed King Kong, my heart was even heavier. In fact, the death of the three-armed King Kong has a great deal to do with him.

It was he who cut off his feet, but when it happened, there was no other choice.

Five people have died today. How many people have to be sacrificed to get out of this forest, Li Tian didn't count in his heart. In the current situation, we have to take one step at a time.

The sky has gradually brightened, and the darkness is receding, so that the haze in everyone's hearts has also dissipated a little. This is perhaps the scariest night of some people's lives. It will be a nightmare for many people in their lives.

Little did they know that their nightmare had just begun.

Climbing to the top of the tree, a ray of sunlight has risen from the horizon. The rising sun brings a touch of warmth to the cold morning.

A new day begins, and what horrors await them?

Li Tian discerned the direction and found that the group not only did not approach the edge of the forest, but walked deeper into the place. Obviously, everyone was moving in the opposite direction all night.

The mood that had just eased a little suddenly became nervous again. In such a deep place, Li Tian did not dare to break in easily, not to mention that there was a group of ordinary people, and there were wounded among them.

Fortunately, the forest is relatively safer during the day than at night. At the very least, these fighters can play their role better.

Luck seems to be much better during the day than at night. At least until 10 noon, everyone did not encounter any trouble. Some of the sporadic small beasts encountered have instead become everyone's reserve food.

I had already walked more than half of the way, and I should be able to get out of the forest before dark, and I climbed high again to reconnoitre, and came to the above conclusion.

After a morning of rapid marching, everyone was already exhausted, especially the wounded Smith and Harry. As the order to rest for the day was given, everyone immediately collapsed on the ground.

The warm sunlight shines through the lush canopy and shines on the ground, shining warmly on everyone's body. Everyone had a pleasant expression on their faces, which must be the warmest touch of sunshine they had ever felt.

Everyone was lazily lying on the ground or leaning against the trunk of a tree to rest, and some people were already snoring slightly. These people are too tired, including calendar days. After many hard battles, he was so seriously injured that he never had time to rest, and he was already weak.

After a period of rest, eating and drinking a few more things, everyone's spirit and strength recovered. But everyone still seized this rare rest time to recover their strength.

Only Xiao Jin, a biologist who was tasked with the expedition, reluctantly dragged his tired body, stood up, and went around taking pictures.

This is the task given to Kim by the Federation, to collect samples of existing creatures. Although everyone did not have much hope of returning to the base alive. But a strong sense of responsibility drives Xiaojin to still do these meaningless jobs.

Although Li Tian is not impressed with Xiaojin's work, he appreciates his dedication very much. told him not to leave everyone's sight, and he went.

Seize this rare time, and prepare to run the crane stake again every day to consolidate the gradually improving injury. At this time, there was a burst of exclamation from Xiao Jin: "Hey~ What is this, it's so strange!" Come and see. ”

Everyone turned their heads when they heard the sound, but they were all stunned in fright. Xiao Jin, who was turning his head to greet everyone, looked at the expressions on everyone's faces in confusion.

Behind Xiao Jin, a blood-red Teng Man was covered with spikes, and his ugly torso was writhing behind Xiao Jin, slowly rising up hideously.

"Run!"

Li Tian, who was the first to react, jumped up on tiptoe, and drew his saber in mid-air.

Only then did Xiao Jin realize that there was danger behind him, and he couldn't turn back, so he got up and ran.

It's a pity that as soon as he took a step, he seemed to be sensed by Teng Man. The rattan that was originally slow suddenly wrapped around him like lightning, and instantly wrapped Xiao Jin like a zongzi.

With a terrible scream, Xiao Jin was dragged into the distance.

In mid-air, it never landed. The soles of his feet kept kicking on the trunk of the tree, like a ghost in the forest, chasing in the direction where Jin had disappeared.

At this time, the people who reacted also hurriedly ran behind Litian. But their speed was much slower, and by the time they caught up with Litian, Litian was already standing in front of a large thorn.

But the thorns are as tall and thick as the trees. The trunk is dark red and covered with spikes. Under a piece of freshly cut bark, bright red sap was trickling with a fishy pungent smell.

There are twenty or thirty strange trees in this area. Under the tree where Litian stood, a Teng Man had been cut off, and a bright red liquid also flowed from the fracture. The rattan that was originally wrapped in small gold had been cut open, and a dried corpse in the rattan lay there quietly.

It is not difficult to tell from the costume that this is Xiaojin. At this time, he had already lost signs of life, and the blood and fluids in his body seemed to have been drained, and there was no trace of water in it. Even the eyeballs were left with a layer of dry skin, embedded in the sockets of the two black holes.

This scene was so weird that everyone's faces were pale and their fingertips trembled. When people are at the height of fear, the most common emotion is anger.

The firepower hand board *wall, which usually has a good relationship with Xiaojin, first showed signs of collapse. Raising the bubble gun in his hand, he began to shoot wildly.

Itagaki is an Asian-mixed race, and it is said that his ancestors came from a certain island country and lived next to the country where Xiaojin's ancestors lived. Originally, they did not belong to the polyadon camp, but for some unknown reason, their ancestors were lost on this side.

The common background experience makes the two naturally close.

The bright red liquid squirted out, which stimulated Itagaku's violent nerves even more, and he was like crazy for a while. Everyone was also stimulated by this strange scene to their crazy nature, and they raised their guns and shot wildly.

Litian's mind was unusually clear, but he didn't have the slightest intention of stopping it.

These ordinary people who live in a relatively comfortable environment have gone through this period of extremely terrifying survival challenges, and strong psychological pressure has brought these people's spirits to the brink of collapse. If you don't let them vent, I'm afraid it's not Itagaki who will go crazy.

Fortunately, there are always mufflers installed on everyone's guns, and they are not afraid of being heard by any wild beast.

Li Tian leaned over and was about to pick up Xiao Jin's body, but he felt a wave of fluctuations under the ground.

When I listened to it all day, I suddenly changed color. yelled: "Run, there is danger underground!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the ground rolled violently as if countless earthworms were about to break through the ground.

After some venting, everyone's emotions have gradually stabilized, and their minds have cleared up. Hearing the warnings of the heavens, they turned around and ran one by one.

In an instant, weeds and dead leaves flew all over the sky, and Teng Man broke out of the ground one by one, each of which was the same as Teng Man who had sucked up Xiao Jin, densely packed and countless.

Like tentacles, flying and chasing everyone. The speed was extremely fast, and in a short time everyone was surrounded.

Li Tian slashed Teng Man with a knife in the sky, and loudly instructed everyone to draw their knives to defend. Firearms are of no use at this point, but can cause accidental injuries.

Xiao Jin's experience made everyone fully realize the horror of this Teng Man, and no one wanted to become another dry corpse. Everyone was desperately wielding their knives, but the dense Teng Man was like a big net, enveloping the entire space, like a hood over everyone's heads.

Elusive rattan rolls in from the ground, from the air, from all directions.

Observe the form in front of your eyes for days. If you don't want to break through again, except for yourself, I'm afraid that everyone here will die. Urgently: "The artillery is ready to attack, everyone covers the artillery." I'm going to cut a gap. ”

Before Litian could finish speaking, a terrible scream came. Mohammed, the demoman who was swept up by Tengman, was struggling to call for help.

Litian had no choice but to abandon his plan and rush to the rescue of Muhammad. Unfortunately, his position and Muhammad were on the two edges of the encirclement, and by the time Litian arrived, Muhammad had already drowned in the sky of Tengman.

Everyone's hearts were cold, and those who had seen the fate of Xiaojin immediately understood what kind of ending Muhammad would be.

Everyone lost their minds at this moment, and suddenly there were a few screams. Li Tian's eyes were already red, and he didn't care to see who the victim was, and if he hesitated for a moment, it would definitely be the end of the whole army.

Litian roared: "Stephen, give you a chance, aim at Mohammed's backpack, where there is high-explosive* explosives." Remember, you only get one chance. ”

The reason why you chose a sniper over a bazooka at this time of day is simple. The sniper rifle shot was more space-efficient and accurate than the bazooka, and these people had no chance to do it again.

After swinging the knife wildly, Teng Man fell down like a streamer, and bright red juice flew all over the sky.

"It's now."

With Litian's shouting, a gap was cut in the airtight rattan.

"Bang"

The beautiful sound of the PR-4 sniper rifle sounded, and then there was silence.

However, the violent explosion that everyone was expecting did not sound. Everyone's hearts are constantly sinking, sliding straight into the abyss.

Stephen's final blow, even for the rest of the day, didn't see the point of impact.

Stephen's face was full of surprise and unwillingness, and he said in a trembling voice: "Believe me, I hit the target." ”

Litian believes in Stephen. Unfortunately, that backpack was too big, and hitting the backpack didn't necessarily hit the explosives. At this moment, two more screams were heard, and the breath of despair was written on everyone's faces.

Regardless of whether Stephen hit the target or not, everyone was in no mood to pursue it. For the current situation, everything doesn't matter anymore, because they're all going to die here.

It's over, it's all over.
